Description
Are you a dog-loving adventurer looking for a truly unique opportunity? Imagine waking up each day surrounded by breathtaking wilderness, caring for a team of older sled dogs, and living in a luxury off-grid home overlooking Lake Laberge (Whitehorse, Yukon).
We’re seeking one incredible couple for a long-term (6 months to 1 year) immersive experience working with our beloved sled dogs. We have 22 dogs. 21 Alaskan Huskies and 1 pit bull.
10 dogs live inside with us, and 12 live outside in kennels. These dogs are our family, and we spend a lot of time with them. You will too! We are looking for a couple who loves dogs to join us. -
